I enjoy the characters in this series -- they're all quite unique and interesting. Carter's perspective was particularly interesting for me, I rather liked it.
That being said, the plot is entirely contrived, and it's obvious from the first few pages what's going to happen throughout the story, as it has been with the entire series.
I will admit to being over the recommended age, and that's probably part of it. But still, the characters make me want to keep reading, even i More...

It's always a little worrisome when a publisher has a huge stack of paperbacks of a late-series book, particularly since it was published over a year ago: has the series not been selling? In the case of the Gifted series, that might be what's going on (I don't actually know but I do suspect).
This series tells the story of a very unusual Gifted class at Meadowbrook Middle School. Each book is in many ways a stand-alone, with only a few references to previous books. This is Carter More...

Carter has amnesia. He was found wandering on the street before he was taken to Harmony House. He's in the care of Dr. Paley, who is trying to get to the bottom of why Carter doesn't remember who he is and why he doesn't seem to be able to even talk about it.
While Carter is being poked and prodded and questioned, another special group of students is meeting in the "gifted" class at Meadowb More...

I don't know why I continue to read this series. It's poorly written and utterly unbelievable. Not the fantasy/special powers the kids have, because that is the crux of the story, but things like police letting "criminal acts" go unpunished with just a wave of the hand, etc. Very juvenile.

Carter is the boy of mystery. In this book we find out his past and what his special power is. This seems like a simple fun series. I started off with the 6th one as that was the only one in the library. I'll have to see if I can find the rest before and after.

The story of the "Gifted" class continues. This time we find out the secret of the most mysterious member of the class, Carter Street. This series is great for what it is. It is an easy and fun series for tweens/teens. I have given it to some reluctant readers with pretty good success. I love Marilyn Kaye and am really hooked on the series. As more and more people learn the secrets of these kids, the mystery of where this series is going increases. This is the 6th book and I am not tir
